WE ARE ALL ON DRUGShi kiddies! and welcome to yet another spleen gurgling installment of SPOZ's RANT the weekend edition! as we thrill to the sights, the sounds.. and yes, even the fragrantly moist spongiform smells of the Adelaide music scene! take a deep whiff of the free floating floculant particles! soak in the gleeful chemical induced dementia! witness the regurgitant excess filling the sky with a fine mist of kaleidoscopic colours! all the uncontrollable flailing! all those pulsating lights! all the endless discordant screaming filling my skull till my brain can take no more and runs screaming to the hills begging for mercy! OH THE HUMANITY!! OH THE INSANITY!! THE HOWLING DEPRAVITY!! WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD SUBJECT THEMSELVES TO THIS ENDLESSLY CORRUPTING STUPIDITY WEEK IN AND WEEK OUT!!?? WHAT THE FUCK AM I THINKING IN PERSISTING WITH THIS MADNESS!!?? WHO's GONNA THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!?? AAUAUAAUAUAAAGGGHHHHH!! *clunk*
yup.. it's come to this.. after surviving week after week endlessly "on tour" throughout the retarded circus that is this city's musical nightlife and surviving the punishing regiment that is required by the gonzo journalist in transcribing it.. I've been reduced to the level of a dribbling imbecile.. as we bring you this.. the hilariously fucked up hungover edition written by SPOZ's complete and utter inability to string two words together (or even to recognise simple shapes and colours)..
yes, that's right kiddies! witness the rarefied horror that is..
SPOZ's RANT - the children's picture book from hell!
note: for the ultimate viewing experience of this blog, either:
(a) drink 11 pints of PALE ALE, 1 glass of RED WINE, stay out till 6-7AM jumping around like a retarded idiot (as hair of the dog remedy for an equally stupid friday night out on the piss) and then read this blog with a monumental case of stultifying braindamage the next day.. or..
(b) surgically remove the frontal lobe of your brain..
either way, you'll probably appreciate the exceptional level of intellect I'm catering for here ;)

*ahem* and thus ends the cautionary tale of why you shouldn't spend too many weekends in a row drinking all the band's beer ride or accepting every single free beer or drink that's offered your way, simply because you happen to be that grinning idiot responsible for that half arsed attempt at music journalism called "SPOZ's RANT".. coz like whooaaaaa maaaan.. that shit will FUCK YO'Z UP! ;)
here's hoping NEXT weekend will have mercy on my poor broken brain and not throw so much damn freaking live music gigs my way *cough* (yeah, I can only wish.. hahahahahaha!)
